If I remember correctly, there was a similar law in Great Britain for most, if not all, of the 19th century, and likely before. You needed something like 4 or 5 men to testify in order to convict someone of rape. It's likely that similar laws also existed in many other places back then, considering that Great Britain was a fairly liberal (in the traditional sense) country.

Of course I'm not saying that this makes the existence of such laws in this day and age more acceptable, I'd be the first to applaud if it ended, but it's unfortunately not the first time laws like those have been enacted.

EDIT: Actually, the law might have been 4 or 5 women in order to convict someone for rape. A man's testimony was likely enough, if there was evidence.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
